Calathea Makoyana is a member of the Marantaceae family, which consists of a large variety of plants that typically have very colorful foliage and posses the ability to bend, or fold, their leaves in the evening. Commonly called a "Prayer Plant" these tropical plants make good indoor statement pieces.
Calathea Makoyana care:
